    Family, Education, Beliefs and Law. 
    We live in a time of increasing conflict due to ignorance, misinformation and polarization. We must change this. How balanced order was and still can be achieved is described in this set of four books.  
    Heads filled with too many imagined injustices ignore realities generally experienced by the dispossessed and powerless, caused by "The Fortunate". A rebalancing is long overdue. But how? This starts and finishes through the actions of caring and well-informed individuals locally first, in areas of personal opportunity and influence, ever growing step by step. It is time to take command of enabling powers constructively, observing, sheltering, feeding and educating: positive change supercharged and empowered through action.  
    The best time to start change is NOW

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    A chilling exposé of how one of history’s most infamous regimes distorted the ancient past to engineer a deadly future. 
    In Ancient Myths and Nazi Propaganda, Davis Truman unveils the shocking ways Adolf Hitler and the Nazi elite co-opted classical mythology, archaeology, and pseudo-history to fabricate the myth of Aryan supremacy. Drawing from original documents, Nazi-era publications, and modern scholarship, this groundbreaking work exposes how ancient symbols and legends were weaponized to create a false historical narrative, one that fueled genocide, war, and the darkest chapter of the twentieth century. 
    From misused Greco-Roman iconography to twisted interpretations of Indo-European migration theories, Truman traces the roots of Nazi ideology through a manipulated lens of antiquity. He explores how fabricated “evidence” of ancient Aryan civilization was used to justify racial purity laws, territorial expansion, and the cultural erasure of entire populations. 
    With compelling clarity and academic precision, Ancient Myths and Nazi Propaganda offers a powerful warning: when history is rewritten to serve an ideology, the consequences are catastrophic. 
    Perfect for readers of history, politics, WWII studies, and anyone seeking to understand how ancient and modern myths can be used to manipulate truth and justify atrocity.

    When Ron Clark walked into his fifth-grade class in rural North Carolina, he was confronted with a tremendous challenge. The children had little interest in learning, and were sorely lacking in guidance. How would he transform a group of apathetic kids into disciplined, thoughtful, and curious students? He quickly realized that they needed to learn some basic rules. Clark compiled a list of 55 lessons, and soon, his fifth-grade students--who once struggled to read at the third-grade level--were reading at the sixth-grade level . . . and loving it. What's more, they were gaining something crucial-self-respect. Those 55 lessons evolved into what Clark calls The Essential 55 -- guidelines for living and interacting with others.The Essential 55 will prepare parents and educators to teach students the rules for life -- everything from knowing how to say thank you, to acing an interview.

    1 - American Revolution: Between 1765 to 1791, the American Revolution was an ideological and political revolution in British America. In the American Revolutionary War (between 1775 to 1783), the Americans in the Thirteen Groups established sovereign countries that beat the British, getting independence from the British Crown and establishing the USA of America, the first modern-day constitutional liberal democracy. The tax of American settlers by the British Parliament, a body in which they had no direct representation, provided contention. Before the 1760s, Britain's American groups kept a great degree of internal autonomy, which was managed by colonist legislatures on a regional level. The Stamp Act of 1765 enforced internal taxes on the groups, leading to colonist outrage and the development of the Stamp Act Congress, which united members from different provinces. Stress reduced after the British rescinded the Stamp Act but flared again when the Townshend Acts were passed in the year 1767. In the year 1768, the British federal government dispatched soldiers to Boston to stop discontent, which led to the Boston Massacre in the year 1770. 
    2 - Mexican Revolution: The Mexican Revolution was a great revolution that included a series of army local battles instead of a single united struggle. It destroyed the Federal Force and changed it with an innovative army, changing Mexican civilization and governance at the same time It also culminated in the adoption of a new constitution that included the revolutionaries' ideal visions. In spite of the fact that President Porfirio Daz's (from about 1880 to 1911) rule had grown progressively out of favor over the prior 31 years, there was no indicator that a transformation would break out in the year 1910.
